In a meticulously curated dystopian suburbia, Karen Delaney, a model of weaponized wellness, glitches mid-brunch, mispronouncing her affirmation and weeping into her mimosa. What follows isn't rebellion. It's something worse: a viral performance of authenticity, pre-packaged and sold back to the masses. A satirical speculative flash fiction about conformity, commodified collapse, and the impossibility of unscripted emotion.
